Thank you to our friend and Historian Ryan Conroy for the truly amazing presentation on the Irish along the canal 3/15. Irish immigrants heavily shaped Phoenixville. They built the Black Rock tunnel and Schuylkill Canal, St Mary's, and provided the labor force for the industrial growth of the Phoenix Iron Company.We are a town built by immigrants and are beautifully strong for it.
